Abstract

Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), functionalized carbon nanotubes (FCNTs) and graphene oxide-carbon nanotube (GCNTs) hybrid Bucky paper (BP) reinforced acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) composites are prepared via vacuum filtration followed by hot compression molding. The nanomechanical, electrical and thermal properties of these BP reinforced ABS composites are studied. The nanoindentation hardness and elastic modulus of GCNTs-ABS hybrid composites reached to 389.98 +/- 91.79 MPa and 7669.6 +/- 1179.12 MPa respectively. Other nanomechanical parameters such as plastic index parameter, elastic recovery, the ratio of residual displacement after load removal and displacement at maximum load are also investigated. The improved nanomechanical properties are correlated with Raman spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). It is found that GCNTs and their composites showed the higher value of defect density. The maximum value of defect density range for GCNTs and GCNTs-ABS is (297.4 to 159.6) and (16.0 to11.6), respectively. The higher defect density of GCNTs indicates that the interfacial interaction between the ABS, which was further correlated with electrical and thermal properties. Additionally, the through-plane electrical conductivities of MWCNTs, FCNTs and GCNTs based ABS composites were 6.5 +/- 0.6, 4.5 +/- 0.7 and 6.97 +/- 1.2 S/cm respectively and thermal conductivities of MWCNTs, FCNTs and GCNTs reinforced ABS composites; 1.80, 1.70 and 1.98 W/mK respectively. These GCNTs-ABS composites with this value of thermal conductivity can be used in various applications of efficient heat dissipative materials for electronic devices.
